Barbecued Skate

Recipe Ingredients

2 tablespoons	30ml	Vegetable oil
4 tablespoons	60ml	Tomatoes - (2 lbs) - peeled, chopped (large)
1		Onion - minced
3		Garlic cloves - minced
1/4 cup	40g / 1.4oz	Molasses or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon	15ml	Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon	15ml	Minced or grated ginger
1 teaspoon	5ml	Tabasco sauce or dried red pepper flakes
1/3 cup	78ml	Freshly-squeezed lemon juice
2 lbs	908g / 32oz	Skinless skate wing - cut 4 serving
		Portions

Recipe Instructions

Heat the oil in a large skillet, add the tomatoes, onion and garlic and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are transluscent, about 5 minutes. Add the molasses, Worcestershire sauce, ginger, Tabasco sauce, lower the heat to medium and cook uncovered until the vegetables are thoroughly softened and the sauce is thick, 30 to 40 minutes. Take from the heat, stir in the lemon juice and let cool.

Just before serving, cut away any membrane from the skate wings. Preheat the grill or broiler. Brush the skate wings on both sides with some of the cooled barbecue sauce and let sit while the grill heats.

Lightly oil the grill top and add the skate wings. Cook until the fish is nicely browned and somewhat firm, 3 to 4 minutes. Brush the top with some more barbecue sauce, turn the fish and continue cooking until the fish is opaque through, about 4 minutes longer.

Transfer the skate to individual plates, brush with more sauce and serve, passing extra sauce alongside.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
